"Aspire Higher" is an engaging leadership and resilience training specifically designed for Year 5 (Semester 2) or Year 6 (Semester 1) students. It is a full day of training with the full cohort over three high impact sessions. Dynamic activities, whole cohort team builders, servant leadership theme, initiative and problem solving activitiesare interspersed in each session.

LEADING FROM THE FRONT (for formal leadership group)

"Leading from the front" is an action and impact oriented training program for your formal student leadership group. It gives them clear steps in order to generate a clear vision, put useful ideas into action (rather than just talk about them) and powerfully communicate the vision.

“Positive, achievable motivation that inspired our students to be their best. Excellent.”

— Pip Walsh- Year 5 Teacher- Coomera Rivers State School, Gold Coast.

“A great day that engaged the students from start to finish. It really reinforced our vision for learning. The group activities were well set up and both facilitators were fantastically engaging, getting the most out of our students.”

The investment for this engaging and transformative incursion and included follow-up material is $15+GST/student (minimum investment of $1,250+GST/day), plus travel expenses (if applicable). The incursion is run by UPP at your school with a whole cohort of students. The best venue is your school hall (or similar), as we use a learning, action, reflection process throughout the day.
